Braden A. Hollis (b. 1998, Los Angeles, CA) is a painter and filmmaker living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Her paintings evolve through an intuitive process of layering and removal, much like choreography. Her works often begin with pure color, while also incorporating and destabilizing images from direct observation, or sourced from art history and popular culture.

She received her BFA from The Cooper Union in 2020. Her work has been the subject of a solo exhibition at 56 Henry in New York and UTA Artist Space in Atlanta. Hollis has been included in exhibitions at Sean Kelly Gallery, Los Angeles; Castle Gallery, Los Angeles; Tilton Gallery, New York; Anthony Gallery, Chicago; New Image Art Gallery, Los Angeles; and Japanese American Cultural Community Center, Los Angeles. Hollis was an artist in residence at the Church in Sag Harbor in 2025 and the Macedonia Institute in 2022. She was also a recipient of the Sylvia Appelman Painting Award in 2019.
